So Fox News had to pay $787 million for lying about the election and now Newsmax has to pay $67 million. Right-wing media are across the board professional liars and should be 100% dismissed by anybody who cares about the truth.

Don't forget that Fox had to fork out almost a $billion. I don’t understand why these “news” outlets are willing to take hits like that for Trump who lies everytime he opens his mouth. Cults reign.
Newsmax lied about the 2020 election. Now they’ll pay Dominion $67 million.

@vermontgmg.bsky.social Does the press understand that covering both sides means that when you give the Trump side, you must annotate it to be sure the lies are identified?

Trump keeps talking about all the money Americans will get if we have high tariffs. The truth is how little money Americans will have if they have to pay high prices for everything because of the tariffs.
